Welcome to ISNA-21

With great pleasure we would like to invite all chemists working on aromatic compounds to join the 21st International Symposium on Novel Aromatic Compounds (ISNA-21), which will be held in Beijing, China, from Sunday August, 9 through Friday, August 14, 2026.

    Originally established in 1970 as the International Symposium on Nonbenzenoid Aromatic Compounds, the symposium’s current name reflects the modern goals in novel aromatic chemistry: advancing molecular and supramolecular synthesis, understanding structure-property relationships, and developing applications in electronics, biology, and other fields. In the spirit of previous ISNA meetings, talks and poster presentations will span a diverse range of disciplines that involve not only the preparation and study of aromatic compounds, but also more general themes concerning aromaticity. Our goal is to provide a forum fostering discussion and collaboration across the entire aromatic chemistry community, from established experts to emerging researchers.

    Information regarding abstract submission, registration, and accommodation can all be found at the conference website, but please do not hesitate to contact us if you have any questions or concerns. We sincerely hope you will be able to join us at ISNA-21 to engage with a dynamic gathering of distinguished and emerging researchers.

    Sincerely,
